NAKIVO Backup & Replication v5.6 Beta provides an automated way to instantly verify VM backups by sending a screenshot of the recovered VM as a proof of recoverability. After a VM backup is completed, the Screenshot Verification feature recovers the VM with Flash VM Boot, makes a screenshot of the booted OS, discards the recovered VM, and sends a report with the screenshot via email. Screenshot Verification can also be run ad hoc or scheduled to run on a particular day. This way you can not only trust that you have a good backup, but also see (and show to your management) that VMs are recoverable.

EXECUTIVE QUOTE
“The new screenshoot verification feature in v5.6 Beta can provide a proof of recoverability for every VM backup, thus ensuring that files, application objects, and entire VMs can be recovered from every VM backup,” said Bruce Talley, CEO and co-founder of NAKIVO. “We are excited to invite VMware professionals to try the new v5.6 Beta and help us make NAKIVO Backup & replication even better.”
